Record #193514:

Advantages and disadvantages of being armored: threespine sticklebacks in Wallace Lake, Alaska / Emily Lescak.

Title: Advantages and disadvantages of being armored: threespine sticklebacks in Wallace Lake, Alaska / Emily Lescak.
Author(s): Lescak, Emily.
Date: 2010.
In: Global Glimpses. (2010.), Vol. 17(1) (2010)
Abstract: Investigates relationship between degree of pelvic armour (reduced or robust) on threespine sticklebacks (Gasterosteus aculeatus) and predation by two common types of stickleback predators (rainbow trout and dragonfly naiads) in laboratory setting. Also investigates possible ways in which low availability of dissolved ions (such as calcium) needed for forming armour may select for certain traits. Hypothesises that heightened stress during winter months may increase mortality of sticklebacks with robust pelvic girdles, since they need more energy than individuals with pelvic reduction to take in ions for development and maintenance of body armour.
